Really great to visit the Army Cadets drill night in Brampton this evening and have the opportunity to find out more about how it operates from ACF Major Jay Annis and ACF SSgt Andy Phipps⠀⠀⠀
As a teen I was hugely interested by the Army but lived nowhere near a cadet detachment, the closest I got was the Scouts. Now as a veteran myself it’s easy to see the importance of the Army Cadets, the values and skills it instils in young people and the opportunities it offers, possibly even leading to an Army career in the future.
It’s great to see it so well attended although there’s still an opportunity to restore a cadet company back in Huntingdon, as there used to be, for those unable to make it out to Brampton.
